Garland moved too slowly. Those here who said this were right.

22. I'm on the same page as you, Earth-shine.

He was too slow to act, but that's all I'm ready to accuse him of at this point in time.

The slowness is something everyone can see, but I'm not comfortable making pronouncements about things I have no way of knowing. Of course people are going to speculate; that's human nature. But making unfounded accusations about his intentions with no evidence is a bridge too far to me. I don't know what his intentions were, and I can't claim to know.

People are angry with him, because we're all worried about the outcome of the upcoming election. That's understandable. Complaining about the delays is also understandable. We didn't have to be where we are right now, and being upset about that is 100% understandable. I'm upset myself.

What I am not, however, is a mind reader. I'm not going to defend him, but I'm not comfortable accusing him of deliberately sabotaging the prosecution of TSF, as some here seem to be doing. That is very serious accusation, and I'm nowhere near ready to jump on that bandwagon.
